 I took this at a local park of my son's fuel powered R/C truck. It is extremly fast and it moves in all directions simultaneously. The front bumper and shocks show that it is in focus with minimal movement, not bad for full speed and only about five feet away. I like this one because it makes the truck look the same scale as the houses in the background. With that in mind it puts the viewer in harms way of the oncoming monster truck. I panned the truck with my camera, pre-focused on a spot that my son had to pass by, so all I had to do was hang on and push the shutter button.

The blur on the grass looks very cool.

Whoa this makes me dizzy. I'd like to see a bit more focus on the truck.

At fist I thought this was a bad picture of a monster truck, but its actually quite a clever pic of a toy making it look huge. Perhaps a bit more sharpness on the body.

i really like the angled pan, it creates a great diagonal blur. the biggest thing holding this picture back is the lack of a crisp focus on the truck.

Too much blur to really allow for focus on any one thing.

Very nice. Good movement and an unusual viewpoint. [7]

Nice shot - It's a shame the car isn't a little bit crisper, but you did a very good job to get what you did.
